GSMArena better, faster, stronger: Total Makeover

16 Oct, 2008
If you are among our regulars, you've already noticed that as of yesterday GSMArena has a spanking new layout that now fits more and hopefully reads better. We've redesigned all pages so you can see more...

        I visit this site often for more than 4-5 years and I noticed the “update" immediately. BUT, the only thing I do NOT see is the "better" "faster" "stronger" Someone came up with a good idea for an update - but this is a good if was 1995 not for 200(8)9+. I don't see anything that is elegant in layout. More Trash!

        The designer(s) was (were) drunk! The only thing you added is the ad box that sits in the middle. More money in your pockets from advertising- which in many cases (I, myself don't click on them- I don’t step on sh*t) the advertising gives fake price. The reason of advertising here is for GSMArena to make money while increasing traffic to advertisers with selling potential other unrelated products or services

        GSMARENA says NO "pyramid schemes" but this is the pyramid schemes. In a world that advertizing must be absolutely eliminated, we see more and more of it. This is called in short “CORRUPTION”. From Government, FED, Corporations, Banking, Big Biz to even small biz like this one, the corruption is in maximum, and all these for one reason: to make profit for few and enslave or destroy all the rest.

        All these will change one day, I know it will but not when. Just like this site few (months) years later will change and redesign again. But the reality is one it will be the same and will serve same purpose: Profit via brainwashing methods and techniques. My opinion is that this site has done no change.
        I would like to see some reactions for my comments, because the real action is in the reaction.

            I prefer the old layout which shows the latest updates on top & reviews at the bottom. Current layout makes me clueless on where to start!!

              older layout was much better. take a poll from people who visit your site and please revert to the older layout if more people want that!

              thanks

                    being a regular to your site, i surf it around 5 times daily, i feel the last design was easier to look for things, now its more on the face and uneasy for the beginners

                      the previous layout is better -- the page is less busy and the font size is more comfortable. The side bar with the brands of phone makers also looked better when it was less emboldened. nonetheless, thks for all the hard work!

                            I'm viewing the GSMArena website on my phone using Opera Mini browser as always. And I haven't seen any noticeable changes then and now except that there more news in the homepage.

                              yes, correct its not user friendly compare to older version. its kind of stress to eyes when you see the whole page.

                              anyways congratulations for changes.

                                To GSMArena Team,

                                You people have made good change by adding more content on Homepage, which led to increase in Page Resolution. This is a nice tweak for the users.
                                Though i myself am a webmaster, so i know that when you make such changes a few users get dis-attracted to the new change, but they gradualy get back to it. This is normal, since it may effect the users with 800x600 resolution, but this change will slowly get better to them, and they will start loving it again :)
                                So... no worries, GSMArena would always rock...

                                    I've been a long time user of the site and always found it excellent, however what really annoys the hell out of me now is the ad box that sits in the middle of the grid of phones when you click on a vendor such as Nokia, SE etc. This box has to go, move the ads to the side or bottom, but NOT in the middle, this is very annoying and I will never click that box, so please move it away so it doesn't detract from the site's otherwise very usable layout.
